I'm working on an app that calls a web service, then the webservice returns an array list. My problem is I am having trouble getting the data into the ArrayList and then displaying in a ListView. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I know for a fact the web service returns an ArrayList. Everything seems to be working fine, just no data in the ListView or the ArrayList.....Thanks in advance!
EDIT: So I added more code to the catch block of run() and now it's returning "org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapObject".....no more no less....and I am even more confused now...
